[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not what I am after but am just tying to figure out the differences in academics fox example I would love to find one that is a STEM school for my DS who excels in that area. [/quote]

Do you mean excels or do you mean is good at.

For example, do you mean that he will need to take Calculus in 8th grade or do you mean he will get straight A's in Algebra 2 in 8th grade?

Also, I am not aware of any ES that have STEM there are HSs with STEM.

In my experience, the Catholic ESs are not going to accelerate at the whim of a parent but if there is a clear need and the child would not be happy at a slower pace they will accelerate.

There are parish schools and independent Catholic schools, the independent schools have opportunity for acceleration, especially the ones with a HS attached. [/quote]

St. Bernadette in Silver Spring offers accelerated math for students - there are as many tracks as needed for 6th-8th graders.  The website says the school's Algebra I team took 1st Place in the National Catholic Math League Competition Division 5, and 2nd Place overall nationwide out of 108 schools (including high schools).
